The 1st annual Toronto Freedom Festival: the city’s most liberated one-day outdoor Festival. The goal of the Toronto Freedom Festival is to foster an environment for celebration of ideas, while providing a forum for dialogue surrounding our cherished freedoms. This celebration will be complimented by a unique collection of musicians, speakers and artists showcased throughout the day.
For almost a decade Queen’s Park North has welcomed peaceful events, parades and gatherings. The Toronto Freedom Festival has been developed in the hope of allowing for additional groups to expose themselves to thousands of forward thinking individuals. Several groups have already registered to take part this year and we welcome others to get involved by filling out an application in the ‘Get Involved’ section.
The Toronto Freedom Festival will have various vendors & exhibitors reflecting several cultures. Music will be a large component with multiple stages showcasing several established live bands and DJ’s from the local Toronto scene. Visit the artist section for full details and schedules. The park will also feature special ‘Awareness Area’ with several community organizations representing local and global interests. The flag ship event for the Toronto Freedom festival will be the 9th annual Global Marijuana March leaving Queen’s Park at 2pm along its traditional Bloor, Yonge, and College route. Last year well over 12,000 people attended the march and numbers are expected to grow once again this year.
There are still vendor booth and sponsorship opportunities available and we invite you to visit the ‘Get Involved’ section for more information. The Toronto Freedom Festival is looking for unique vendors and sponsors who see the benefit of thousands of ‘free thinking’ individuals gathered together in the heart of downtown Toronto.
Make sure you check the website regularly for updated artist, speaker, vendor and sponsor information. We also invite you to be heard by leaving a comment on the forum of the “Be Free” section of the site.
A person’s choice may not be the same as yours but their freedom to choose should be. Toronto welcomes the world to experience the special energy that our Freedom Festival allows.
